Real-life husband and wife Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward star in this 1990 Merchant-Ivory adaptation of the Evan S. Connell novels Mrs. Bridge and Mr. Bridge. Woodward was nominated for both an Oscar and a Golden Globe Award for her portrayal of Kansas matron India Bridge, who becomes increasingly vulnerable after her children (Kyra Sedgwick, Robert Sean Leonard, and Margaret Welsh) move out. She begins to wonder if her rigidly conservative husband (Newman) loves her, as they both face a changing America in the 1930s and 40s. Blythe Danner and Simon Callow are also featured.
